First reading: A poet’s grief is tender like being hit in the head by a metal bat.
Second reading: The second reading is, like its subject matter, something that matures and better expresses itself in time. This is as much a memoir about grief as it is an essay on writing about grief.

Perhaps the most powerful book about grief I’ve ever read.

"Here lies hope. A hope that what you gave me will grow in others, if I am able to share it."

Oh, this was so sad. Rating it feels bizarre and awful. I can't remember the last time a book has conveyed such profound grief.
